New WOI Pics From TK
Jimbib replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I apologise, I was just teasing you, the MiG-29 is from USAF: Air Dominance, the promotional USAF sim that TK helped to create. Read more here... http://www.criticalmassinteractive.com/htm/USAF.htm -

P-38 Intact...more or less...found on West Wales Beach
Jimbib replied to russouk2004's topic in Military and General Aviation
There are only a few currently flying P-38's around the world. If this P-38 found on Gwynedd beach gets restored, it'll make a fourth, which could also be joined by a fifth in the future. -

5 Years
Jimbib replied to column5's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I found this sim by total accident back in 2003. I went into my local gamestation with a fiver in my pocket and saw SFP1 on the shelf for 3 pound. I grabbed it there and then, rushed home and booted it up. It was my first real flight sim and I've never really played any others. I flew the sim for about a year un-modded and then in 2004 started to get into the 3rd party mods that were available. I distinctly remember the P-51, Monty's B-29, a lot of the high viz F-100D skins by JSF_aggie and Mike's B-52G. Only after I actually got the sim, I realised that I had earlier bought an Aircraft Illustrated magazine which had a review of SF... -

May the poor guy rest in peace. I was up ar Marham a few years ago doing some work experience with IX Squadron, certainly is a great base. -
Slimer Madness!
Jimbib replied to Zurawski's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Zur, I know that you can have slimers built as meshes that are able to be turned on and off, I just don't know how to model it. But take a peek at wpnssgt's A-10, cos he had them to work like that. -
Slimer Madness!
Jimbib replied to Zurawski's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Sundowner did it a different way from the slimers as meshes, he positioned a bloody tonne of singular lights in the data.ini file into blocks around the aircraft. I'm trying to do that with the stock A-10. I would whole heartedly recommend the slimer mesh method any day. -

Awesome mate! Cheers UV mapping is all I needed to do skins, but templates are a bonus -

Looking great Fracture! It's a fun bird to zoom around in Would you consider releasing the UV mapping for it? -
Start position
Jimbib replied to Tomb's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
This is not a work around problem, and only really works if you have all 16 people flying in a session, but move the start points near airbases of your choosing, that way you can all quickly land, taxi and then take off when you choose. Like I say, not a solution, but perhaps a option. -
Beautiful, just beautiful, you brought a tear to my eye mate.

making an aircraft
Jimbib replied to ronan's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Blood, sweat and tears. Seriously though, like Atreides says, 3DS max and either Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro or The Gimp will certainly get you a far way into building your own aircraft, mapping them and then skinning them. Be prepared for a long haul though, it can take a while depending on the complexity of the aircraft you may wish to build. In this case, the B-2 Spirit could be deceptively difficult. Although looking like a fairly simple airframe, I imagine trying to get the curve and flow of the fuselage just right would take a while. It could be worth trying to start off building very simple, low poly objects and airframes. In actual fact, building weapons starting off is a great stepping stone, they are more simple than aircraft and turn out to be a much smaller work load. Once you're all modelled up with your aircraft comes the importing stage. This will include optionally building a correct pit for the bird and doing all the necessary ini creating to ensure your aircraft behaves and operates correctly in the game. Have a look at TK's exporter notes and mustang's 3d modelling tutorials, they are goldust to any new modeller. -
Wow, we're going back to primate stages it would appear. And what the f*ck was the racket played on the video? Sounded like a commodore farting.
